Laurie Lee Tremblay was 15 when her body was found behind a restaurant at 10694 Westheimer Road in Houston on September 26, 1986. The white teenager had been strangled, and her death was the first in a series of similar killings that remained unsolved for years.

Investigators later linked Tremblay’s murder to other strangulation victims through DNA. In 2003 Anthony Allen Shore was arrested and, after DNA connected him to the cases, confessed to Tremblay’s killing and to the deaths of Maria Del Carmen Estrada, Diana Rebollar, and Dana Sanchez. Shore had prior convictions for sexually assaulting two family members and was described by authorities as a sexual predator who targeted young girls and women.

Tremblay’s case moved from a cold file to a key part of the investigation that identified Shore as the suspect. Does anyone have memories of that Westheimer Road area in 1986 or information that might shed more light on Laurie’s last day?
